Hi bees!
I’m three months out and without a dress, so I’m enlisting the help of all you dress-saavy bees. I’ve considered a few dresses, including the Rhianna Royale, but I’m really looking for something with a Moroccan/Middle Eastern vibe.
Here are a few favorites (way out of my price range) to help you get the idea:



Yes, all Amanda Wakeley. My price cap is $1000, but I’m really looking to spend more like $500-$600. PLEASE don’t send me links for dresses way over my price range, they just make me want to cry. 🙂 I’m perfectly fine with used or sample dresses, I pretty much have to buy off the rack considering my wedding is in three months.
Ok bees! Go forth and bring me back a miracle! 🙂

A lot of the Bari Jay White and Bridesmaid dresses fit this vibe… and their prices are reasonable, as well.
I like these:




From top: Bari Jay White 2007, 2008, 2012, and 69908 (all from their site).
Good luck!

Check out J. Crew. They have a lot of flowing dresses that look a bit Moroccan.

@tiny tuna: Agh… I LOVE that top right one, but I can’t find it for sale anywhere or even find a price. I’m sure it’s high and it’s killing me.

Here are a few. They’re along the same lines as what you’ve posted:
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_VW351000-VW351000_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns
$600
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Charmeuse-V-neck-halter-with-ruched-surplice-bodice.-SV9563_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns
$675 (I know this one looks better on real people than on the model, check the review section at the bottom for more pictures).
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Beaded-Tank-Soft-Chiffon-A-Line-Gown-WG3079_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns
$449
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Floral-Burnout-Chiffon-Gown-859695D_Bridal-Gowns-Features-All-Gowns
This one is a little different, but has the cap sleeves and it’s only $215.
I know there are some stigmas surrounding DB, but I’ve personally had great service and you would be able to get a sample in whatever size you needed, since the wedding is coming up so fast. Let me know what you think!
